    Cons: air bags, your name, and your intro.
    Pros: Paint.

    Really can't....dunno what the interior looks like! But I'd do hellacious burnouts in it!
    Oh yeah...alternators suck on open engine hot rods, too. And why are the headlights so high?

    i think if the grill was unchopped, the lights would look lower. i honestly think the whole car is just insanely killer!

    My Cons list is growing. Flamed backing plates?
    Seats that look like urinals?

    Let the beating begin.

    T coupes are like that from the factory, flat from the B piller back and a slight rake from the B piller foreward. The front of this T's roof has the rake, albeit and arced one. Doing this gives it a strange look as T's are square style wise and the arced roof looks out of place....as well as the cowl gauge tubes.

    I agree, it has some NON taditional syling ques, but the quality and finishes look good.....air bags:cool:

    Only thing I cant figure yet is do you not know the difference, or just dont care.
    You can all take pride in diluting this tradition till it becomes Boyds rods.
    Wake the heck up and go see what Brian Bass is building if you want to know what its about.
